I am preparing to brew a big sweet stout (1.085 Target OG) using Wyeast's Rogue Pacman yeast (of which I have one smack pack).
According to the Mr. Malty calculator (see screenshot below), I need 3 Liters of starter to fully attenuate.
All of my starters to this point have been 500-1000ml and am a little nervous about screwing up a starter this big (especially with a limited production yeast strain).
My question is, are there any special steps I should take with this starter? What should I use to cultivate the starter in (Would a growler be ok?). Are there any other things I need to look out for?
